Jankovic simply missed her chances as her poor year continued, converting just five of 18 break points.

Every other seed in action managed to reach the quarter-finals.

Irina-Camelia Begu thrashed Paula Cristina Goncalves 6-1 6-2 to set up a meeting with Nao Hibino, who overcame Veronica Cepede Royg 6-3 7-6 (8-6).

Monica Puig crushed Olga Savchuk 6-0 6-4 and next faces Naomi Osaka, who also had a comprehensive win by beating Montserrat Gonzalez 6-3 6-0.
